Here’s Why Men Are Visiting Miami Tummy Tuck Clinics

Tummy Tuck Surgery

Tummy tucks, also known as abdominoplasty, were once considered to be a ladies-only treatment. While it’s true that tummy tucks can be used for post-pregnancy restoration, the procedure is also popular among men. Men can visit a tummy tuck clinic in Miami to improve the contour of their midsection, reveal smooth abs and show off the physique they’ve worked hard to achieve.

Why Men Get Tummy Tucks

When men lose weight, especially if the amount is over 50 pounds, their skin does not always shrink down to fit the body’s new contour. This can result in excess, sagging skin around the lower abdomen. It’s also possible for the abdominal muscles to become loose and present a persistent, vaguely pot-bellied appearance. These two factors can combine to make men self-conscious about their body’s in intimate situations and in public areas such as the gym.

When performed at an experienced Miami clinic, a tummy tuck will remove excess skin and draw the abdominal muscles together to provide a smooth, firm contour. It‘s also possible to combine a tummy tuck with liposuction in order to remove lingering fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. The results will be a smoother, more contoured abdomen that looks and feels better both in and out of clothes.

Differences In Procedure

The incision for a male tummy tuck is a traditional abdominoplasty incision, normally placed low enough that it can be covered by and underwear band once healed. Being patient during the recovery process and avoiding excess strain will help speed up and promote long-term healing.

When performed on a male patient, a tummy tuck leans towards promoting a square or athletic-shaped waist rather than one that is closer to an hourglass. The other significant difference is the impact gained from strengthening the abdominal wall. Both men and women will benefit from the flatter, firmer appearance this improvement brings but men who are physically fit will often see visible abdominal muscle tone shortly after surgery.

Tummy Tuck Candidacy

The ideal candidate for a tummy tuck is someone who is within a healthy, stable weight range, has realistic expectations, and no uncontrolled medical conditions such as heart disease or hypertension. It’s also important that a candidate not have a large amount of internal, or visceral fat since this type of fat is beyond the reach of a liposuction procedure.

The consultation appointment is an excellent time to review your candidacy with your chosen surgeon and talk about your reasons for visiting a Miami tummy tuck clinic. This information will help your surgeon devise the best procedure for your needs and possibly recommend other treatments if they align better with your goals.

A tummy tuck is not a form of weight loss surgery, but is intended to improve the contour and profile of the body. Having realistic expectations about the results of a tummy tuck is one of the most important contributors to a patient’s satisfaction with their outcome.
